The Security Service of Ukraine has showcased a series of effective strikes on russian surface-to-air missile systems using the kamikaze drones.
According to their report, the targeted objectives included four Tor-M2 systems, three Pantsir-S1 systems, one 9A39 launch and charging machine of the Buk system. Russian propaganda often claims that drones are easy targets for the Tor and Pantsir systems. However, the reality is quite different. These air defense systems are not only being struck by the kamikaze drones, but the entire process is also being recorded by reconnaissance drones.

It is important to note that all the targeted short-range systems were in combat readiness, as evidenced by their active surveillance radars. Both the Tor and Pantsir systems are said to be capable of firing at aerial targets while on the move.
The first episode, where the Tor system is hit, is particularly noteworthy. The system’s radar was tracking the kamikaze drone, indicating that the crew was aware of the threat and apparently attempted to leave the area, as shown by the track marks.
Additionally, the footage shows the kamikaze drone, which cannot be precisely identified but is likely Ukrainain RAM II, a fixed-wing UAV commonly used for such tasks.
